Re: Way Behind EV-DO

I have this card and it is awful. The antenna must be popped out to get a signal. I've also lost the antenna (but found it). Don't get this card.

Problem with Cingular is they are hiding that many of these markets only have UMTS, not HSDPA. UMTS is notably slower than HSDPA. Ping times are also very sporadic compared to EVDO.

I'm sticking with Sprint EVDO for now. RevA currently outperforms HSDPA.

Compare results here...

Stop spreading these ignorant BS.
